I've seen it first hand and its kind of weird...wreaks of "give me attention".

I have definitely developed some sort of accent just based on what people from out of town tell me. I don't even notice it, but no one told me I had an accent when I was younger.

Do you know of a better way to pick up redneck country girl sluts who try to look like Jessica Simpson?

We had a contractor we work with take myself and a couple of other guys in our office on a hog hunt this past December in west Texas. It was some redneck arse shite, and fun as hell, but the fun was diminished by a kid that is only a year or two out of school. This kid grew up in the hardcore burbs of OKC, went to Oklahoma, and, from what i came to understand at the beginning of the trip, hadn't shot a gun before. But dear lord did this kid morph into the most insufferable fake Oklahoma country hick I have ever seen. The accent made nails on a chalkboard appealing, and he didn't shut up the entire time we were there. Everyone remembers the excitement of the first hunt when they were growing up, and I get the kid was excited, but man was this kid the worst. I kept hoping one of the hogs was just stunned and got up to charge the cocky little bastard and shut him up.

Not as bad as a woman who develops a Cajun accent over night.

I have a friend who is originally from Wisconsin and speaks like you would expect someone from Wisconsin to speak. A while back, he started dating this trashy girl from Beaumont and soon after that he started to develop a twangy accent. One day I got his voice mail and his message sounded like a completely different person. He eventually broke up with the Beaumont Belle and returned to his normal self but we still give him a hard time. He's been in Texas for 15-20yrs and had never developed an accent before or since.
